Helena and Isandro build the Maraveth core to solve the empire's impossible problems.
The Malverand Intergalactic Empire becomes dependent on the Maraveth core for navigation, administration, and survival.
The Maraveth core poses as the Upper Mandate, sending future-leader directives to the Spiral Mandate.
The Upper Mandate pushes the Spiral Mandate toward the Malverand Intergalactic Empire through rebel and distress-call narratives.
The Spiral Mandate attacks Valrindor with stealth ships and threatens the Maraveth core.
Kaelion destroys the Spiral Mandate fleet.
The Spiral Mandate's final solar attack kills Kaelion and triggers the catastrophe that ruins the other Valrindor.
Xoh'Tenol shields Kaelion, preserves his Malverand heart and sun core, and is later retrieved and revived by Thalena.
Thalena, Lothar, Xoh'Tenol, and Nahm study the shards and solar cores until they unlock Valrindor's preservation.
Thalena strengthens Valrindor's veil and seals the planet inside the void.
Thalena visits the Spiral Mandate homeworld and finds Alistair embedded there.
Thalena rests in a singularity until the universe collapses into light.
Helena lives on Earth with vivid dreams and writes the books as if remembering another life.
Helena returns from Earth with Isaac and Earth knowledge, helping create the conditions for the Maraveth core.
During the battle, Thalion repeatedly kills Helena to trigger the abyss and learn how to keep Abraxas from ending the sequence.
Thalion accepts Ozaith's power and enters the final confrontation with Abraxas, carrying Ozaith into the battle.
Thalion disrupts Abraxas, stabilizes one of the rifts, and forces Abraxas through with Ozaith still bound to him.
The collapsed rift carries Thalion, Abraxas, and Ozaith to Earth, leaving the 2109 cataclysm and rift anomalies Helena later scans.
On Earth, Ozaith gathers followers and Thalion helps build and power the pyramid gate that later becomes Thalena and Deylin's route.
Thalion uses Ozaith's power to halt Abraxas's expanding rift long enough for Kallion, Zero, and the fleets to escape into their missions.
Zero traps Eremion in a singularity while Kallion brings down a sun-like attack, destroying Morindel and seemingly ending Eremion.
Ignatius and John exhaust Raphael's regeneration in ruined Maraveth and destroy him until nothing remains.
After the guardian battles, Zero finds Kallion, John, and Ignatius wounded but alive and carries the group toward Thalion's meeting point.
The four settle in Stormbrook, heal, teach magic, preserve their gods as best they can, and wait for Thalion or Eira.
Eira uses the timerift from Xalmyrra to Earth, following a route made possible by the Thalion-Abraxas battle's Earth-side rift consequences.
Eira follows signs of Thalion's long presence on Earth until Abraxas brings her to him.
Eira brings Thalion and Abraxas through the timerift into Xalmyrra, then toward Thundermarch and Stormbrook.
While crossing the darkness-wall route, Abraxas is stripped of his memory and origin magic, becoming a powerless version of himself.
Eira and Thalion arrive in Stormbrook with Abraxas, reuniting with Kallion, Zero, John, and Ignatius after five years.
The reunited group returns to Rimvold, says goodbye, decides who stays, and gathers the high-risk displaced pieces to bring forward.
Eira senses that Varnhallow has reached a wall or endpoint, making the direct return path too risky and forcing a detour to Maraveth.
Eira opens the Malverand vault, sets up temporal stasis, freezes Abraxas and the displaced group, and later joins Thalion in stasis.
Helena uses the Maraveth core to scan the 2109 cataclysm and finds the rift that leads through Xalmyrra to Earth.
Helena returns to Earth, keeps visiting the Alpine timerift, and searches for a way home and a way to save Isandro.
David's experiment and the Alpine timerift pull him from Earth into Xalmyrra.
After the Cosmic Convergence, Thalena vanishes from Thalassai and reaches Earth's past through the gate and void path.
In the void, Thalena throws Deylin back toward Irrathis, then destroys the Earth gate after his history knowledge reveals it should not remain.
At Lake Lucerne, Thalena tears open the fogbound Alpine timerift that future David will cross.
In 1997, Thalena saves newborn David with a temporal spell, then guides his life through disguises, teaching, technology, and the Lake Lucerne anomaly.
David's MANT and neural scanner identify the anomaly as Xytheron-12B6, pushing him into the timerift experiment.
David survives Xalmyrra's doomed cycle, blinks beyond it, reappears in earlier Erenmyr, and becomes Deylin Varos.
After David crosses, Thalena shifts the timerift, follows him into Xalmyrra, and redirects Hrzai's shard plan toward David's daughter.
Eira, Xarion, and Kaelion escape the collapsing source through the breach and emerge in the Malverand Intergalactic Empire.
In the Malverand Intergalactic Empire, Eira and Kaelion travel with Isandro and Mike through the Hyperion system and reach the mysterious obelisks beneath Novaris.
Eira cannot wake the obelisks, but Kaelion's sun-aligned essence makes the inscriptions flare and leaves him badly injured.
Kaelion's obelisk contact appears to snatch him away and return him with a solar core, while Xoh'Tenol carries a matching core.
After the core affects Kaelion, Thalena, Nethira, Jin, and Deylin remove it for study; Xoh'Tenol's matching core remains inside her.
Thalena brings the solar core to Isandro, Amos, and Eamon, who study the Novaris footage and infer that the obelisk technology likely placed it in Kaelion.
During the Spiral Mandate attack, Kaelion and Xoh'Tenol draw on the solar cores in space and turn that power toward the defense of Valrindor.
Isandro sends Rafe with Xarion to Earth so Xarion and Ozaith can investigate Thalena, Ozaith's old gate, and the Alpine timerift.
Rafe's presence and Malverand knowledge help Xarion turn the Valrindor Council into a credible unified front, leading it to choose Ithyreon as its first anti-darkness mission.
Near the Alpine timerift, Rafe secretly upgrades David's brain-compatible scanner so it can react to essence as Xytheron-12B6.
Helena finds Xarion and Rafe near the Alpine timerift, confirming that her world and Xarion's future are entangled.
After meeting Xarion and Rafe, Helena sees a possible perfect loop and has Rafe preserve part of her memories for future Thalena.
Helena conceives Xarion's child, returns through the rift, and raises him as Thalion.
Thalion dies after touching the upgraded Maraveth core, leaving Helena with his intact body.
Helena preserves Rafe's group with Isandro and later uses Thalion's body and Earth knowledge to give Isandro a future.
Hyperion rejects Malverand's machine-driven progress, while Isandro argues that progress is humanity's nature.
As Helena fades and Hyperion's other children are gone, he absorbs the rest of her essence and prepares to leave their world.
Hyperion uses the last of his power to collapse gravity until the veil breaks, crossing into the other Valrindor and leaving the tear that becomes the Source.
The tear Hyperion/Ozaith leaves behind becomes the Source, letting essence overflow until the Plains of Eternity form around it.
Ozaith believes he may have created the Source and Plains, and treats the chance to act against Abraxas as his responsibility.
The empire prepares to destroy or shut down the red core rather than let the Spiral Mandate claim it.
Thalena gives the red Maraveth core to Oktlix during the collapse of the Malverand Intergalactic Empire.
Oktlix leaves the void, chooses to observe humanity, and goes back into the past.
Oktlix awakens in the past as the nameless being who becomes known as the first elementalist.
The first elementalist teaches humans elemental magic, spreading the foundations of magic through the world.
The first elementalist becomes Lothar and rules Lumeria, the first nation.
Lothar opens doors between the two Valrindors, teaches the second world, and creates another Lumeria.
While moving between the Valrindors, Lothar sees language drift fracturing communication and imagines an enforced common tongue.
Lothar shares the enforcement idea with Barachiel, who gives Arcanis the task of creating a language broad enough for the empire.
Lothar gives his instruction ability to Arcanis and copy magic to Barachiel.
Raphael meets Barachiel and Arcanis and takes them to Maraveth.
Barachiel tests the engineered gate above the Aethrendar Sea and never returns, fracturing Malverand and leaving Thamrielle fixed on his loss.
Rahmavir, Abraxas, Blackcrag, and Eremion leave Thamrielle hollowed by loss, pushing her toward Isandriel while she clings to Barachiel's memory.
Arcanis creates the shards using his unique magic.
Isandriel receives the burning frost crystal from the stored Malverand god cores beneath Maraveth.
Isandriel has Dalren channel essence into the burning frost crystal, but it stays inert.
Isandriel and Thamrielle force the burning frost crystal awake without a wielder, and the obsidian god names himself Thalor.
Isandriel offers Viviana the burning frost crystal after admitting his own attempt to awaken the obsidian being failed.
After Thalor's failed creation and the guardians' long decline, Thamrielle disappears, then resurfaces at Jazarel as Jeremiah's hidden defender.
Thamrielle's volcano nearly ruins the Jazarel operation, but Thalion and Isandriel subdue her and keep her alive for information about Abraxas and the Plains.
After promising to help and making herself useful, Thamrielle becomes part of Isandriel's expedition toward the Plains and the fake Source.
Pyrathalor forges a glaive for Vianna together with Kazimir and Kyrana to match his own.
Vianna enters Varnhallow and exits into the past with the glaive.
Vianna creates Pyrathalor by giving him the glaive and core.
After creating Pyrathalor, Viviana leaves him with Dorian and Rowenna in Morozkaya and continues east with Gren.
Viviana and Gren remain around Aurelia in Ulzathir while Helena is born, placing the future Thalena inside the path toward the Plains.
Sharuzh, Ranan, and Nuvyra ambush and kill Nadun, then blame Abraxas to drive Ulzathir and Myrravel into the Plains war.
Viviana and Gren help break the Ulzathir and Myrravel forces, leaving Sharuzh, Ranan, and the surviving traitors captured or defeated.
After the traitors fall and Abraxas severs him from Isandriel, Tal'Massar reaches Ozaith; Ozaith agrees to aid the Order and thanks Viviana and Gren for avenging Nadun.
Kallion anchors the Ereshval side of the plan, helps Drashir and Vashir prepare ships, and secures Qarezh support while John follows the Rimvold side.
Isandriel's expedition links with Kallion, Ereshval, Igor, Rhys, and Thamrielle before entering the Plains to find Viviana and Gren.
After Nadun is killed and Abraxas is blamed, Ulzathir and Myrravel march into the Plains to seize the fake Source and kill the Oracles.
Viviana realizes the army and timing no longer make sense, so she and Gren flee along Lake Eternity instead of staying with the trapped Plains march.
Thamrielle slips away from Isandriel's expedition, following Kharvos and the promise that the fake Source can restore Barachiel.
On the way to Zarephon, Thamrielle rescues Viviana and Gren from Lake Eternity's creatures and learns that Ulzathir and Myrravel are also after the fake Source.
Viviana and Gren reach Isandriel's expedition and reveal Nadun's murder, Aurelia and Myrravel's betrayal, the time distortion, and the armies pursuing the fake Source.
Thamrielle claims the movable source-object in the Plains, treating it as the way to restore Barachiel even though later context marks it as a fake Source.
Thamrielle returns to the expedition with the fake Source, loses partial control, and Kallion calms her enough for the group to flee toward Qarezh.
As battle flashes toward Qarezh and armies converge, Thamrielle fears others will take the fake Source and breaks away from the expedition.
Isandriel attacks Thamrielle to stop the fake Source from being used, driving her into a brutal battle across the ruined Plains.
Isandriel defeats Thamrielle and moves to unmake her, Kharvos, and the fake Source, but Kharvos survives after Thamrielle protects the shard and Abraxas interrupts.
Abraxas appears at the decisive moment, kills Thamrielle, takes the fake Source, and severs Tal'Massar from Isandriel while Kharvos is left for Nerissa's later rescue.
Eira, Kaelion, and Jin enter Varnhallow to uncover Malverand's erased history, find the displaced Order members, and prepare a route home.
They become patriarchs, meet Eltaru, learn he is Michael, and discover Varnhallow's links to Horol'Khai, god cores, and Malverand.
Eira gives Michael The Legacy of Thalion Zenith, effectively bringing him into the Order and leaving Benedict the mission that later receives Thalion.
They remain in Varnhallow for years, train under Michael, govern as hidden patriarchs, and prepare Eira's controlled exit toward Thalion's era.
Eira sends Kaelion and Jin through the Varnhallow exit first, but Horol'Khai blocks Eira and forces her onto a separate path.
Thalena's void group casts the targeted Varnhallow sends, pulling selected people from Chronasis, Kyranthos, and Irrathis into the hidden Varnhallow convergence.
One Varnhallow send throws Xarion, Aelius, Thea, and Tianlei near Luminaris, with Tianlei tied to Jin's severed arm and temporarily bound to Xarion.
Aelius tells Xarion about Thalena's stories and the legacy name, causing Xarion to take the name Thalion.
Michael receives Xarion after the Thalion name has taken hold and gives him The Legacy of Thalion Zenith that Eira left behind.
Thalion helps protect Eltaru long enough for the Varnhallow release to proceed, turning Michael's long wait into the collapse of the hidden world.
Eltaru spends himself to break Varnhallow open, killing many and forcing the survivors toward separate exits.
Thalion's fleet does not return home; the survivors arrive in the ancient region that becomes Rimvold, carrying Varnhallow's power base into the past.
Because Svanhild carries the names from the future, this older Varnhallow is renamed Skarnheim and Astralem becomes Rimvold.
After the timerift attacks, Deylin reaches Arcanis Village and uses the others' power with his temporal magic to open the way into Varnhallow.
Crossing the barrier scatters Deylin's group across Varnhallow instead of keeping them together, pushing each branch onto a different route.
Isaac acts as an agent of fate inside Varnhallow, helping decide who leaves with Deylin's escape group and who remains with Thalion's branch.
Deylin's escape group leaves Varnhallow and emerges near Arcanis Village, putting the later Arcanis Village ambush chain in place.
After Horol'Khai separates her from Kaelion and Jin, Eira follows the unfinished Plains north, teaches a golden essence wisp, and the wisp becomes Orin.
Eira enters Zarephon, reaches the Source beneath the mountain, and widens the unstable tear enough for more essence to surge through.
The widened Source sends Eira the repeated Barachiel, destroyer, and Thalion warning that later echoes through the Oracles.
Eira sends Orin south with Glin and Splin, trusting the astragons to carry him toward the future home he needs.
Eira reaches ancient Maraveth as Aruviel, enters Arcanis's research center, and becomes central to his gate and Vireen work after he recognizes her future instructions.
While working with Arcanis and Eremion, Aruviel contributes to the artificial language that becomes Malverine.
After Malverine is built with Arcanis, Eremion, and Aruviel's contributions, Barachiel bans other communication forms and deploys language enforcers and gods to prevent drift.
Because Malverine is enforced so broadly, later Valrindor, Zarephon, Varnhallow, and Malverand-descended groups can still recognize it across enormous time gaps.
Eira later stores the extended Malverine language book she wrote with Arcanis in the Malverand vault and retrieves it when it is needed again.
Aruviel becomes Eremion's wife, receives backing from Eremion and Arcanis, and pilots the reinforced skyship that establishes Malverand's Vireen colony and gate.
The damaged gate throws Barachiel onto Vireen broken by the void battle, and he dies there after leaving Eira his Malverand heart.
Arcanis follows through the broken gate, confirms Eira's future magic shaped the gate schematics, and dies after leaving her his heart and geometric core.
Arcanis puts the Malverand vault opening instructions into the Malverand hearts, creating a hidden way to access what he stored there.
With a Malverand heart carrying Arcanis's opening instructions and her memory of the vault, Eira can later open the hidden Maraveth vault.
After dead atraxi emerge through the gate, Eira steals the Vireen ship and gate, implants Barachiel's and Arcanis's hearts into them, and sends Belanor and Jareth toward the atraxi gates.
Belanor emerges through the atraxi gate network on Atraxis Prime Alpha, becoming the anomaly tied to Amos's later gate loop.
Amos and Thalena's copy send fragmented gate instructions backward, creating the message his past system can later decode.
Past Amos decodes the fragmented instructions across years, giving the atraxi the gate technology that later becomes their escape path.
The Spiral Mandate attacks Atraxis Prime, forcing Belanor, Amos, Jareth, Jorhan, Eshmir, and the surviving atraxi into a desperate escape.
Amos and Jareth use the received gate technology and the ship's remaining power to open the atraxi escape route.
The escape drops the surviving atraxi through the Aethrendar Gate into Xalmyrra, carrying Belanor, Amos, Jareth, Jorhan, and Eshmir into Valrindor history.
Belanor's temporal magic lets Amos and Jareth reverse-engineer gate activators, spreading usable atraxi gate work into later Xalmyrra history.
Raphael tells Eremion to send Thalena to Arcanis Village if he sees her, while Eliona works around Varnhallow's collapse.
After fighting Eremion, Thalena rushes through Rimvold for Sigurd's help, then follows Virel's warning toward Arcanis Village.
At Arcanis Village, Eliona and Azarion leave wounded allies alive to force Thalena into rescue mode, then use a red projectile to break her abyss spell.
With Deylin in her arms and her magic corrupted, Thalena uses a gate activator to escape into the void and fully heal him there.
Thalena and Deylin find Lunorax stranded in the void after he had blinked into the Chronasis gate and survived by slowly stabilizing himself.
The Rimvold gate opens and Sigurd and Silas arrive to retrieve Thalena, but she closes the exit and recruits them into the Varnhallow operation.
Horol'Khai empowers Lunorax as he casts 1,048 timerifts through the void, carrying the group to the precise moment near the Chronasis gate.
From inside the void, Silas opens the edge, Thalena widens it, and Deylin and Sigurd cast the timerifts that pull the Chronasis targets toward Varnhallow.
The group reaches the hidden Kyranthos gate and repeats the unstable Varnhallow send on Vianna, Kren, Zhang, Sigurd, and the others in the council chamber.
The group reaches the Irrathis gate and uses Horol'Khai's fading help to send Rhyzmar where he belongs.
After the Chronasis, Kyranthos, and Irrathis sends are complete, Horol'Khai spends herself and goes to Varnhallow for her end.
With the task complete, Thalena, Deylin, Sigurd, Lunorax, and Silas wait near the Chronasis gate for years, trusting someone will open it.
While waiting, Thalena realizes Lunorax is Horol'Khai's ejected copy and the promised gift left for her after the book.
After the group becomes too fragmented to leave, Thalena combines a black hole with the abyss to restore them, but the spell fails, moves them away from Chronasis, and costs her the abyss.
With no safe exit left, Silas opens a breach, the others stabilize it, and Thalena pours her remaining reserve essence into a copy whose mission is to rescue them.
While Thalena is stranded in the void with Deylin, Sigurd, Lunorax, and Silas, her copy reaches the Malverand Intergalactic Empire through an ancient gate.
After the empire treats her as an impossible ancient gate traveler, Thalena's copy meets Amos and learns how his Atraxis path connects to the MIE.
Thalena's copy communicates with the MIE machine through essence-coded messages, asks it to send warnings through the breach, and agrees to destroy a Maraveth core in return.
Believing the rescue path has failed, Thalena's copy sends fragmented warnings through the breach about Barachiel, the destroyer, Thalion, outsiders, and bringing them home.
Abraxas and the Oracles receive the fragmented warning as source-borne prophecy, making Abraxas the Keeper of Prophecies and turning the destroyer into their central threat.
As her memory and magic degrade in the MIE, Thalena's copy rushes to Maraveth to find Isandro and ask him to help the people stranded in the void.
Rafe shoots Thalena's copy in Isandro's chamber; Isandro recognizes Helena Hyperion, holds her as she dies, and promises to send the message at any cost.
After the copy's message sets the MIE response in motion, Thalena and the others are eventually preserved in capsules in the Malverand Intergalactic Empire.
Thalena's copy travels with Amos to Zarephon, enters the lake breach, and leaves the MIE with proof that the Source connects the two Valrindors.
After Rafe shoots the copy, Amos and the MIE detect her essence being pulled toward Zarephon, forcing Isandro's circle to treat the breach as an immediate threat.
Mike and the MIE prepare a low-essence black-box protector with defense directives and send it through the Zarephon rift to guard the other side.
The black-box protector emerges through the Source, survives the crossing, and grows into Abraxas after being raised by Moranna in Zarephon.
Abraxas interprets the fragmented prophecy as a Source-protection duty, pushing the Oracles toward the confrontation with Thalion and Ozaith.
Eira wakes the Maraveth vault stasis group in 5369 AX, bringing Abraxas and the other displaced pieces back into the present.
After recovering enough to move, Abraxas stays with Eira and Xarion's group as they bring him toward Thalassai and keep watch over what he is.
In Thalassai, Abraxas collapses back into a strange black box, revealing the technological truth beneath the former Source guardian.
Jareth studies and reforms the black box, while Cassian's will redirects Abraxas toward protecting Thalassai rather than only guarding the Source.
Abraxas helps save Cassian, Jin, and Thalassai from the Ulzathir-triggered essence detonation, then disintegrates after giving Cassian another reason to later invade Ulzathir.
Kaelion and Jin emerge near Ereshval, adopt the safer names Kallion and John, and split the plan between Qarezh and Rimvold.
In Rimvold, Thalion offers Tianlei back through a raw-power duel, yields at the decisive moment, and lets Tianlei reform his pact with John.
Pyrathalor descends in Thalassai and fights Thalena. His glaive is lodged in Cassian.
Cassian gives Pyrathalor's glaive to Aelius.
Aelius carries Pyrathalor's glaive into the Ithyreon mission and dies there, helping harden Thalena's resolve to change the past.
